- Flavor Text
- The only concern for a samurai is that he might perish before enacting his lord's will. Death is a meaningless triviality compared to that.

Rules Q&A
- Q: Outnumbered reads:
"Battle: Give all your opposed Personalities with Followers at the current battlefield +1F. Give all enemy Personalities there without Followers -1F."
Does this create an ongoing effect that checks for personalities that match the criteria and grants them effects as long as they do, or does it create bonuses that stick to personalities that qualified at the time Outnumbered was played?
A: The latter. Once it's given, there aren't later checks to see if you keep it or not. Such effects that continuously check are usually traits, and/or they'd state their duration such as, "While your opposed Personalities have Followers, they have +1F."
